Your Autumn Touching Lives

Our autumn 2014 Touching Lives cover story tells of the agonising situation Laura and Ryan faced, celebrating the arrival of their daughter Isabella whilst mourning the loss of her twin, Grace. The serious condition twin twin transfusion syndrome, which can affect around 10% of identical twins, had sadly developed undetected at a late stage of Laura’s pregnancy. We are currently funding a research project that aims to develop a new treatment and reduce the risks to identical twins in the womb.

“We think the research funded by Action Medical Research into TTTS is brilliant. Any treatment that may effectively be able to offer the same, if not higher, survival rates for babies without the added complications of surgery would be a breakthrough with worldwide benefits.”Laura, Isabella’s mum
